Void Realm, Time Continent, three mages were driving away from the lair of the Chen Spider Dragons, leaving behind a burning mining pit.
It was a perfect raid: the cave entrance was just big enough for a sports car to enter, so they drove straight in and ran over five juvenile Chen Spider Dragons, then used poison to kill the other twenty-four.
Facing the overlord creature, the Widow Spider Dragon, whose home had been destroyed and family killed, they paid utmost attention, setting fire and then beating it, giving it a neatly arranged, dignified funeral.
Terrain kill, fire attack, mobbing, they had become very familiar with this sequence of operations, transforming tough battles gradually into monster-killing slaughters, so much so that Diya became somewhat sentimental: "If there's a god in the Void Realm who protects sentient creatures, should we pray for forgiveness for our sins?"
